KIK Messaging on HD2 - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Is anyone using KIK messenger on there HD2? If so, what are your experiences?

Worked fine for me, but I don't really see the need for it over regular sms.
Actually the story of me installing it was pretty cool. My friend mentioned it to me and another friend. None of us had it installed on our phones. One of them has the iphone 4 and the other has the evo. We all started trying to install it at the same time. I had downloaded it, registered and started adding friends before the other two even had it downloaded.

Yeh I just like the fact it shows up as D for delivered so you know it got there. Then R for read so you know they read your text. My only problem is that it lags when receiving new messages. Whether its my data or not I'm not sure but I normally have data connection and they still don't come.

hey how did u guys get it in on your hd2? i thought it was only for andorid, bb , or iphone?

Sorry for such a late reply, I kind of gave up. I could never find any fixes so I just stopped using the app. My only guess is it has something to do with the fact that our phones rooted but idk. Anyone find anything out?

Black Berry messenger BBM on HD2

is there a way to get BBM to work on HD2 ?
there is a thread at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=482411
but it seems to be unable to get BB Pin ... any ideas anyone ?
I'd really like to know too.
I think windows need to come out with some kind of equivalent. Even the iphone has some kind of app that does that.
Either that or improve the windows live messenger.
hey,
ive heard that bb pins are unique to the actual blackberry handset and cannot be emulated on other devices.
a bit of a bummmer cos that would be awesome!
oh well, hopefully as u say windoes comes up with summink

That is true, as well as the BBM server is a closed system, no access from the outside (off blackberry.net) , which is why people on BB's loose internet if BB is down and the service provider is still up, because everything goes through BB ..

So there is news that RIM may open their Blackberry messaging service to other platforms, I think (from what I have read) this only includes Android and iOS. Take a read: http :// crackberry. com/ blackberry-messenger-coming-android-and-ios
The only way for BBM to work on another OS would be if RIM opened up their PIN service.
Just delete the obvious spaces in the URL, I don't have enough posts to add a link yet... I am new to WM!

Facebook app

apart from the official facebook app are there any alternatives to it because its a bit of a hit and miss for me.
Nope not really mate..
There is touch.facebook.com though in your browser
Yeah, the 'official' ones always seem to be a bit picky - apart from the Apple one it seems... I've had comments fail to post using the WM Marketplace version of the MS FB app every time when I use the physical QWERTY keyboard, but hardly ever when usin gthe on-screen one, for example. It never failed to post a status update though, on either kb
if you don't like the Touch site, there's always the half-way version at m.facebook.com.
i'm using babbler atm its amazing and notifies you on anything you want instead of just the handfew offered by the official app. gotta say the one for blackberry was actually on par with iphone i gotta say.
Yeah, I used Babbler for quite a while on my G1 - not got around to installing it on the Desire yet. Best thing was that it notified you whenever someone "liked" your status or photo, which no other app does AFAIK
What about bloo? Ive installed that atm cus Babbler seemed slow..
I only had lite though, dunno if pro is faster?
Bloo has always been good IMO
Whats the notifications like? No ones sent me anything yet so i dunno! lol
bloo keeps not letting me read peoples post saying i'm not their friends etc?

APP---11 June 2010 - Magic Poker - A must have app!

This is a post for my friend Jonathan, he has made an awesome app that will scramble your friends brains. It's free and on the market place. He doesn't tell u how to do the trick, but with a little practice and a guess he will email u the directions. See his email below.
Hey guys, this is my first android app. It's called magic poker flip, which is a poker magic property app. You can use it to flip out others selected card by touching the screen. Show it on a party will be cool. You may watch my video here.
Now the android version is on android market as a free app. It's now v2.0, and tested well on 2.1 & 2.2. Not sure about 1.6 & 2.0, but seems can't work on 1.5. The secret of the trick is hidden inside the app, maybe you can guess by yourself how the trick works or try to find the solution somewhere in the app.
Hope you guys will like it and wish you have fun! Thanks!
Thanks Chris for helping me. Some guys have sent me email and just guess the solution right. Congrats..
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It's two month after my app was published, and tomorrow will be my 21st birthday, so I think it's time to reveal the secret to all you guys, no matter you've solved it or still stuck in it or planning to download it.
The solution of the trick is hidden in 'tutorial', you can enter and reverse your phone to check it if you can't figure it out.
Here I want to thank all the guys who sent my email or PM, your encouragements are my motivation to go further.
For the WM users, really sorry for the delay of your version. I promise it will be OK at early September, at which time I may finish my school project.
Nice app, I'll private message you my guess and my suggestion.
i don't get it. so does the trick work by you revealing a card that someone has chosen?

yes, you can play it with your friend after you get the right solution to the app, like i did in the video.
alright then, i shall try to figure it out. will pm you once i think i got it right
EDIT: Ok, i figured out 50% already. Now to find out the other half
2nd EDIT: I figured out 99% already. Just left that 1%
By the way, this app is really awesome. Smart technique.
Final EDIT: I've solved it! This magic app is by far the most innovative and well thought off that I have seen. (unlike some iphone magic apps that I've tried)
Ha, thanks for the appreciation! Good for you to get it. Just GO & SHOW to your friends, it will be COOL.

Why is it he uses the computer to pick a card? I don't really get it.
I've tried pointing so the camera can see the card and I've tried saying what the card is, the app just gives a random card :?

When he finishes his exams, he is going to work on a WM version, but has quite a bit of coding to do. Wish him luck on his exams and I'm sure we'll see Magic Poker and others like it this summer. Good luck Jonathan! And get that Paypal working so we can send ya a dollar. It's the least we could do for your unique App!
Good luck with your exams, Jonathan
mhm....i got it to get the numbers i want, but the colors make me some kind of trouble
EDIT: got the colours also to do what i want...it's pretty neat and well done
Took 2min to find out.
It's pretty neat though.
Great app, guys.
Thanx, I promise it will come to wm, but maybe I can not work this month became of the school assignments. However, I'll reply your email ASAP. If you have some ideas or some needs you can tell me via email and I'll try to create more apps which bring you more fun. Love you, guys.

[Q] Rooted the X, now what?

I know this has probably been asked before...but I'm a noob and couldn't find anything in the search.
I've rooted my Froyo X using doroot just for the wifi tethering. I want to know what other uses there are for a rooted phone.
Can I change the notifications so they're unique to the event? I get the same sound for a text and when I plug in the cable.

First check out the Droid X Wiki for some nice guides and info on what you can do with your newly unlocked device.
And to answer your last question... you can do that without being rooted. Just go into any app that sends you notifications.. and in the settings of THAT app... you can change which notification sound it plays when that particular app notifies you.

Oh cool. Thanks for the info and the n00b guide. I just got the X a couple of days ago and came from an omnia winmo6.1 so this is all new to me. I fkn love this phone/interface so much more intuitive.
Does anyone know if there are more TV apps like TV.com?
Former i910er myself... It was a huge difference jumping from all this omnia roms to this. Also loving my X... Love it when girls say how big it is...

Sorry...I mean it worked in the sense that you can make calls, but texting was a chore and navigating through contacts, making appointments was next to impossible without the stylus...which I promply lost after getting my 910.

Ok, I have to give you that. The default WM 6.1 was a HUGE pain
It was much better after upgrading to WM 6.5.3
I used Thumbcal to replace the calendar, and Swype made typing easier
